could it be used for printing black and white documents like college homework? I may buy a printer for my homework

Yes you can print just about anything on it, just like a regular printer. If all you are looking for is a regular printer there are other printers out there you can buy that are cheaper than this one.

Yea, it works great for that. I bought it for that exact reason. I used it all semester and the black cartridge never ran out, and when printing black and white stuff, it runs pretty fast as well.

This printer is better for photos, specifically black and white, mine had major problems after only a few months, just when it came out of warranty

Absolutely. You just choose color on the printer options before sending it off to be printed. All color printers can print in black and white. You just need to see if they print black and white separately. Some printers will mix all colors to make black and white printouts, others have a dedicated black and white cartridge or drum. It is more ideal to have a separate unit for black and white as mixing the colors to make black and white eats the levels of ink or toner very quickly. I hope that makes sense.- Damon

Yes. Makes both Black and white and color copies. Scans documenta well also.

Yes, you can use this to print plain text in black and white, but it is slow and uses expensive pigment inks. I use both a B&W; laser and an inexpensive dye-based ink jet on my home network for general printing. The Pro-10 is really a photo printer for pros and serious amateurs. I use it exclusively for photos.

Yes, definitely. You will have to carefully configure your printing application.

Absolutely. You can go to settings and print in either color or black and white for both single and duplex printing.

The software you use should not be an issue. As long as your computer has a USB port, the printer should work nicely.

I use it to print black/white reports and color handouts on a regular basis using standard 92 bright 20# paper (standard copy paper) while "on the road" visiting accounts. I HAVE used it for photos on rare occasions, but I use it mostly for business.

Not by itself. You would need a wireless print server, which can be found at Amazon.

I have used it for black and white, gray toned, and colored documents. I liked it far better for the colored documents (actually for all documents) than using a flat bed scanner, which I used extensively before I bought the Scanjet.

Yes, you should be able to do that. I have an HP printer and can do it without any problem.

This printer is an unfailing work horse for printing multi-paged documents and meeting basic four-color needs. If you're a visual purist and are seeking hi-res quality, it's hard to predict. It may be able to do a good job. It does a super job with everything else.

Yes. You can print a lot of documents with the cartridges that come with the unit. I would reemphasize how pleased I am with this printer. It is extremely reliable when connected to the LAN, much like your mouse or a scanner or external drive etc. However, the XL replacement cartridges are quite expensive, even at Costco, which is maybe the best place to get them.

I would NOT recommend this printer. It will not print (even black and white) unless all cartridges are full! Thank g-d I bought it in in costco so I just returned mine and purchased a new printer.

Yes! On your computer just choose double sided when printing. For more info on it please check out my unboxing and review of it on YouTube at: http://youtu.be/Mz5-N9BlE3U?a.
